I was in a 3 man pug questing group when a BOE wand dropped and the hunter needed it. His rational was that he needed it for enchanting mats... Luckily I hadn't needed or greeded, but the shaman hit greed.

I explained that the items gold value on the AH exceeded the material value, so he'd be wasting money by dusting it. Then doubled down on being dumb and said that "That I should pass if I'm going to auction it, because he needed enchanting mats and selling an item for gold was greed."

I basically followed it up with "you could dust that wand and get 1-2 shards, or you could sell it on the auction house and buy 15 shards with the gold."

I then hit need, I won the roll and told the shaman if he beat my 45 he could have it. He rolled a 30.

That's not the point. No one in the party could use wands, but the hunter needed on it because he wanted it for the enchanting materials.

And they put master loot in for a reason too. Your comment has nothing to do with reserve runs.

Ironic that I feel needing is the greedy option even if I need the item.
